No. The planets known in Kepler's time had been known for millennia. The first new planet to be dsicvoered by astronomers was Uranus in 1781, bout 150 years after Kepler died.

How many planets did Kepler know about?

Johannes Kepler knew of six planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.


How did tycho brahe discover Mars?

Tycho Brahe did not discover Mars, as it had been known since ancient times. However, he made important observations of Mars' movement in the night sky, which were crucial in helping Johannes Kepler formulate his laws of planetary motion.


What year did Kepler accomplish the Keplers laws?

Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion:1] Each planet moves in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one focus2] The line form the sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas of space in equal time intervals3] The squares of the times of revolution (days, months or years) of the planets are proportional to the cubes of their average distances from the sun.


Who is the brilliant mathematician that used the data of Tycho Brahe to prove the accuracy of Copernicus' basic ideas about the motion of the planets?

Johannes Kepler did. In perhaps the greatest demonstration of empirical discovery,he took Tycho's data ... compiled over a lifetime of observing and reporting wherethe planets appeared in the night sky ... and deduced three simple statements thatdescribed a system of planetary motion that could produce those appearances.Kepler didn't say why the planets should behave that way and, technically, he didn'teven say that they do behave that way. He merely said: Here's a system to describethe motion of the planets, and by the way, it fits what we actually see the planetsdoing in the sky over periods of many years, and it's simpler than any other systemthat's ever been offered, so there may be a good chance that it's true.Almost 100 years later, Isaac Newton was writing his own hypotheses, theories,and conjectures, including his 'laws' of motion and his 'law' of gravity. He was ableto show that IF his laws of motion and gravity are correct, then one result would bethat moons and planets MUST behave according to Kepler's laws.


What was Johannes Kepler's nickname?

1. planets travel in elliptical orbits around an off-centre sun. 2. the speed of a planet's orbit depends on its distance from the sun. when a planet's close to the sun it, orbits faster. when it's further away from the sun, it travels slower 3. the farther a planet or dwarf planet is from the sun, the longer its orbit *note: did this because there weren't any fricken answers on the web that was specific, easy and in point form answer. Have fun!!!!! (you probably won't) lol :P

The true shape of planetary orbits was discovered by?

Johannes Kepler was the first person to prove that all of the planets are in elliptical orbits, but he was unable to propose any mechanism that would cause this. Based largely on Kepler's work, Isaac Newton was able to invent the calculus of infinitesimals and to propose his law of universal gravitation, providing a mechanism that would cause the planets to behave in accordance with Kepler's laws. Newton's later comment "If I have seen further than other men, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants" was in direct reference to Kepler's essential contributions.
